Chapter 12
1 Tada otide Rovoam u Sihem; jer se onde skupi sav Izrailj da ga zacare.
2 A Jerovoam, sin Navatov, koji još beše u Misiru pobegavši onamo od cara Solomuna, kad ču, on još osta u Misiru.
3 Ali poslaše i dozvaše ga. Tako Jerovoam i sav zbor Izrailjev dođoše i rekoše Rovoamu govoreći:
4 Tvoj je otac metnuo na nas težak jaram; nego ti sada olakšaj ljutu službu oca svog i teški jaram koji je metnuo na nas, pak ćemo ti služiti.
5 A on im reče: Idite, pa do tri dana dođite opet k meni. I narod otide.
6 Tada car Rovoam učini veće sa starcima koji stajaše pred Solomunom, ocem njegovim dok beše živ, i reče: Kako savetujete da odgovorim narodu?
7 A oni mu odgovoriše govoreći: Ako danas ugodiš narodu i poslušaš ih i odgovoriš im lepim rečima, oni će ti biti sluge svagda.
8 Ali on ostavi savet što ga savetovaše starci, i učini veće sa mladićima, koji odrastoše s njim i koji stajahu pred njim.
9 I reče im: Šta vi savetujete da odgovorimo narodu, koji mi rekoše govoreći: Olakšaj jaram koji je metnuo na nas tvoj otac?
10 Tada mu odgovoriše mladići koji odrastoše s njim, i rekoše: Ovako kaži narodu što ti reče: Tvoj je otac metnuo na nas težak jaram, nego nam ti olakšaj; ovako im reci: Moj je mali prst deblji od bedara oca mog.
11 Otac je moj metnuo na vas težak jaram, a ja ću još dometnuti na vaš jaram; otac vas je moj šibao bičevima, a ja ću vas šibati bodljivim bičevima.
12 A treći dan dođe Jerovoam i sav narod k Rovoamu, kako im beše kazao car rekavši: Dođite opet k meni do tri dana.
13 I car odgovori oštro narodu ostavivši savet što ga savetovaše starci;
14 i reče im kako ga savetovaše mladići govoreći: Moj je otac metnuo na vas težak jaram, a ja ću još dometnuti na vaš jaram; otac vas je moj šibao bičevima, a ja ću vas šibati bodljivim bičevima.
15 I car ogluši se naroda, jer Gospod beše tako uredio da bi potvrdio reč svoju što je rekao preko Ahije Silomljanina Jerovoamu, sinu Navatovom.
16 A kad vide sav Izrailj gde ih se car ogluši, odgovori narod caru govoreći: Kakav deo mi imamo s Davidom? Nemamo nasledstvo sa sinom Jesejevim. U šatore svoje, Izrailju! A ti Davide, sad gledaj svoju kuću. Tako otide Izrailj u šatore svoje.
17 Samo nad sinovima Izrailjevim, koji življahu po gradovima Judinim, zacari se Rovoam.
18 I car Rovoam posla Adorama koji beše nad dankom; ali ga sav Izrailj zasu kamenjem, te pogibe; a car Rovoam brže sede na kola, te pobeže u Jerusalim.
19 Tako otpade Izrailj od doma Davidovog do današnjeg dana.
20 I kad ču sav Izrailj da se vratio Jerovoam, poslavši dozvaše ga na skupštinu, i postaviše ga carem nad svim Izrailjem. Ne prista za domom Davidovim ni jedno pleme osim samog plemena Judinog.
21 A Rovoam došav u Jerusalim sazva sav dom Judin i pleme Venijaminovo, sto i osamdeset hiljada odabranih vojnika, da zavojšte na dom Izrailjev da povrate carstvo Rovoamu, sinu Solomunovom.
22 Ali dođe reč Božja Semeju, čoveku Božijem, govoreći:
23 Kaži Rovoamu sinu Solomunovom caru Judinom i svemu domu Judinom i Venijaminovom i ostalom narodu, i reci:
24 Ovako veli Gospod: Ne idite, i ne bijte se s braćom svojom, sinovima Izrailjevim; vratite se svak svojoj kući, jer sam ja naredio tako da bude. I oni poslušaše reč Gospodnju i vrativši se otidoše kako Gospod reče.
25 Potom sazida Jerovoam Sihem u gori Jefremovoj i naseli se u njemu; a posle otide odande i sazida Fanuil.
26 I reče Jerovoam u srcu svom: Može se carstvo povratiti domu Davidovom.
27 Ako ovaj narod stane ići u Jerusalim da prinosi žrtve u domu Gospodnjem, srce će se narodu obratiti ka gospodaru njegovom Rovoamu, caru Judinom, te će me ubiti, i povratiće se k Rovoamu caru Judinom.
28 Zato car smisli, te načini dva teleta od zlata, pa reče narodu: Ne treba više da idete u Jerusalim; evo bogova tvojih, Izrailju, koji su te izveli iz zemlje misirske.
29 I namesti jedno u Vetilju, a drugo namesti u Danu.
30 I to bi na greh, jer narod iđaše k jednome do Dana.
31 I načini kuću na visini, i postavi sveštenike od prostog naroda koji ne behu od sinova Levijevih.
32 I učini Jerovoam praznik osmog meseca petnaestog dana, kao što je praznik u zemlji Judinoj, i prinese žrtve na oltaru; tako učini i u Vetilju prinoseći žrtve teocima koje načini; i postavi u Vetilju sveštenike visinama koje načini.
33 I petnaestog dana osmog meseca, koji beše smislio u srcu svom, prinošaše žrtve na oltaru koji načini u Vetilju, i praznovaše praznik sa sinovima Izrailjevim, i pristupi ka oltaru da kadi.

1 Kings

Chapter 12
1 And Rehoboam went to Shechem: for all Israel were come to Shechem to make him king.
2 And it came to pass, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who was yet in Egypt, heard of it, (for he was fled from the presence of king Solomon, and Jeroboam dwelt in Egypt;)
3 That they sent and called him. And Jeroboam and all the congregation of Israel came, and spake unto Rehoboam, saying,
4 Thy father made our yoke grievous: now therefore make thou the grievous service of thy father, and his heavy yoke which he put upon us, lighter, and we will serve thee.
5 And he said unto them, Depart yet for three days, then come again to me. And the people departed.
6 ¶ And king Rehoboam consulted with the old men, that stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, and said, How do ye advise that I may answer this people?
7 And they spake unto him, saying, If thou wilt be a servant unto this people this day, and wilt serve them, and answer them, and speak good words to them, then they will be thy servants for ever.
8 But he forsook the counsel of the old men, which they had given him, and consulted with the young men that were grown up with him, and which stood before him:
9 And he said unto them, What counsel give ye that we may answer this people, who have spoken to me, saying, Make the yoke which thy father did put upon us lighter?
10 And the young men that were grown up with him spake unto him, saying, Thus shalt thou speak unto this people that spake unto thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, but make thou it lighter unto us; thus shalt thou say unto them, My little finger shall be thicker than my father’s loins.
11 And now whereas my father did lade you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke: my father hath chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
12 ¶ So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king had appointed, saying, Come to me again the third day.
13 And the king answered the people roughly, and forsook the old men’s counsel that they gave him;
14 And spake to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, and I will add to your yoke: my father also chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
15 Wherefore the king hearkened not unto the people; for the cause was from the LORD, that he might perform his saying, which the LORD spake by Ahijah the Shilonite unto Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
16 ¶ So when all Israel saw that the king hearkened not unto them, the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David? neither have we inheritance in the son of Jesse: to your tents, O Israel: now see to thine own house, David. So Israel departed unto their tents.
17 But as for the children of Israel which dwelt in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
18 Then king Rehoboam sent Adoram, who was over the tribute; and all Israel stoned him with stones, that he died. Therefore king Rehoboam made speed to get him up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
19 So Israel rebelled against the house of David unto this day.
20 And it came to pass, when all Israel heard that Jeroboam was come again, that they sent and called him unto the congregation, and made him king over all Israel: there was none that followed the house of David, but the tribe of Judah only.
21 ¶ And when Rehoboam was come to Jerusalem, he assembled all the house of Judah, with the tribe of Benjamin, an hundred and fourscore thousand chosen men, which were warriors, to fight against the house of Israel, to bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam the son of Solomon.
22 But the word of God came unto Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
23 Speak unto Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and unto all the house of Judah and Benjamin, and to the remnant of the people, saying,
24 Thus saith the LORD, Ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren the children of Israel: return every man to his house; for this thing is from me. They hearkened therefore to the word of the LORD, and returned to depart, according to the word of the LORD.
25 ¶ Then Jeroboam built Shechem in mount Ephraim, and dwelt therein; and went out from thence, and built Penuel.
26 And Jeroboam said in his heart, Now shall the kingdom return to the house of David:
27 If this people go up to do sacrifice in the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, then shall the heart of this people turn again unto their lord, even unto Rehoboam king of Judah, and they shall kill me, and go again to Rehoboam king of Judah.
28 Whereupon the king took counsel, and made two calves of gold, and said unto them, It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem: behold thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
29 And he set the one in Beth-el, and the other put he in Dan.
30 And this thing became a sin: for the people went to worship before the one, even unto Dan.
31 And he made an house of high places, and made priests of the lowest of the people, which were not of the sons of Levi.
32 And Jeroboam ordained a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, like unto the feast that is in Judah, and he offered upon the altar. So did he in Beth-el, sacrificing unto the calves that he had made: and he placed in Beth-el the priests of the high places which he had made.
33 So he offered upon the altar which he had made in Beth-el the fifteenth day of the eighth month, even in the month which he had devised of his own heart; and ordained a feast unto the children of Israel: and he offered upon the altar, and burnt incense.
